Happy New Year everyone! I can't believe it's been an entire year since I last said that. I have a few thoughts in my heads this year.
This exact time last year I was sitting in my now husband's family's living room, reigning in the New Year with my best friend. At that time I had no idea that I would end up marrying that best friend and spending the rest of my life with him. Tonight, I'm sitting in our own living room watching the ball drop on our own tv, with our pets.
This past year I gave up some friendships and kept other friends really close. Some of them might have been mistakes. Maybe I shouldn't have given up on some friends, and maybe others I shouldn't have continued to associate with. But, you live and learn. Maybe one day those friends I shouldn't have given up on will come back into my life and we'll try again. Maybe not. Either way, I know what I'm looking for in my life now.
This next year I hope to reach out to people who I might have been too proud to reach out to this past year. Get reacquainted with friends I never should have given up in the first place. I hope to judge people a little less and learn to be more appreciative of the things I have. I know this all sounds really cliche but last year I made these resolutions, and I stuck to them. Of course I have the same resolutions as probably everyone in the world; I want to lose weight, and be prettier/healthier this year. But, in reality I don't care about those things as much as I care about working on communicating with my husband, being a better friend to the people who deserve it, and just being happy. I feel like in 2012 I learned to judge people less and get to know people more, and I tried to look at the bright side of everything. The latter was a little difficult for me and I plan on working on that a little more. I just want to be happy and make my husband happy this year.
Again, happy New Year to everyone out there in Cyberland. <3
